How come i couldn't use the help hub with my existing iD log in details, but had to create a separate one, which isn't made clear. my password wasn't recognised so eventually I opted for 'forgot password' so I could enter the competition, waited for the reset email which never came!! now ive created a separate log in for the Help hub, the competition is closed aaah! I had the winning answer too.

    Hi ​@Dave ja view,

     

    I’m really sorry to hear about your experience, I can understand how frustrating that must have been, especially missing out on the competition after going through all those steps.

     

    The iD Community (Help Hub) does currently require a separate login from your main iD Mobile account, which can definitely catch people out if it’s not clear. It also sounds like the password reset email didn’t come through as expected, which would have made things even more difficult, apologies for that inconvenience.

     

    I know it’s disappointing to have missed the competition, especially when you were confident in your answer! Hopefully there’ll be more chances to take part in future, so fingers crossed for better luck next time.

     

    If you have any other questions or need help with anything else, we’re always here to help.

     

    Regards,
